Remember when MySpace was the go-to social networking site? Now we bet you can't even remember your password for it. Well that could change if a Justin Timberlake and friends planned redesign catches the hearts and imagination of both new and former users.
The social networking site that enjoyed huge success before being muscled out by the likes of Facebook and Twitter has published a video demoing some of the delights we can expect from the revamp.
Gone is the cluttered, colour sporadic interface and in is a far more clean tile-like experience. Music remains at the heart of the site, with users able to search for new and old artists, discovering songs, albums, fan pages, videos and mixes. However, photos, wall posts and even trending topics (ahem…Twitter?) are far more prominent.
MySpace has published the following message on its site, new.myspace.com and is inviting prospective users to register their interest by sending their email address:
"We're hard at work building the new Myspace, entirely from scratch. But we're staying true to our roots in one important way - empowering people to express themselves however they want. So whether you're a musician, photographer, filmmaker, designer or just a dedicated fan, we'd love for you to be a part of our brand new community."
MySpace now has the backing of pop star turned actor, Justin Timberlake who is a major shareholder in the site. The video below even gives us a glimpse into his own page.
While we can't promise a MySpace profile as star studded as JT's, first impressions are good.
Could there be a new - well, old - kid on the social networking block?

Dear Sir, I am beginning my therapy with the advice that you have given.
I already contacted Thomas Smith, (healingmatters.com) whom we should ideally call as the real doctor. I received his book too about Insulin-the silent killer. Its such a pleasure to find simple truths after a long time.
I have started vitamin C with 500mg dose. I got Solgar Vitamin C 1 gm tablets and Flax seed oil and cod liver oil.
My present problems are
palpitations since 2 to 3 years.
Chest pain..a sort of dull aching pain that is mostly present and if I strain much it beomes more. And when it becomes more it stays that way for a day or two.
For more than 2 years I am unable to walk long for fear of getting the
Now a days I also feel discomfort when taking prolonged lectures for medical
I tested my heart with a cardiologist and fortunately nothing pathological
was noted in ECG, Echocardiography and Stress test.
After a chance reading of your website, i have got the hope to get healed
logically. I thank Almighty for this and pray for your well being.
Please guide me to recover quickly. I would appreciate if you could help me in recommending your medicines and how to get them immediately. Meanwhile should I get Lysine also from Solgar brand or wait for your powder. And I want to know if i can take vitamin c in large amounts being a Diabetic?
Presently I am on Glyciphage 500 mg extended release at meal time and Amaryl 1 mg BD. As I had heart weakness doctors have been recommending insulin since 4 months. but I was hesitating to take it. but since two days as I got more weaker after a 4 hour lecture my wife has forced me to take Lantus insulin 8 units at bed time. Please advice. thank you.
Hopefully one of the docs here will have good advice. Pauling pointed out that insulin is an example of an orthomolecular (aka good) drug! Are you Type I?
All the evidence I am aware of is that vitamin C is very important for diabetics, the more the better. (If this is not true, keep reading this thread! We'll all find out...) For example, here is a story about recent findings:
OU researchers stop diabetes damage with Vitamin C
Irwin Stone told us that research since the forties showed that increased vitamin C reliably lowers the requirement for insulin.
And yes - take what every vitamin C lysine and proline you can find locally. Assuming your authorities allow it, we can ship directly to you if desired.

Our first DBA Team event, in Richmond, VA just before SQL Saturday #187 went well. Overall I think our experiment was a success and we're already talking about where and when we might do this again.
In the meantime, we didn't make a separate site for this series of events, being an experiment and all. I'm adding this post as a placeholder for the various slide decks and code.
Core Monitoring for SQL Server (Steve Jones)
Good DBAs ensure that they are always aware of the state of their instances. All systems should have monitoring in place, not just so you know when things go wrong, but so you understand what a normal workload looks like and can plan for the future. This session will cover the basics of monitoring a SQL Server system and the various metrics you should be tracking.
Getting Started with SQL Server Backup (Grant Fritchey)
Backups are fundamental to protecting the investment your business has in its data and they're the foundation of disaster recovery planning. We'll go over best practices for database backups, to ensure you're establishing that foundation correctly within your systems. This introductory level session covers full, log, and differential backups, as well as restores and restores to a point in time. Come along to be sure you've got the right protection in place for your systems.
Understanding Database Corruption (Grant Fritchey)
A DBA's primary purpose is to ensure that the information in their charge is accessible by the correct people within their organization. Despite everything you do to make sure you've got your servers configured, monitored, and tuned, with well-tested backups in place, you can still lose data through corruption. But what is corruption in a database? This session lays out exactly where database corruption can come from, how to find out exactly where the corruption is within a database, and the methods you have available to recover from database corruption.
Indexing for SQL Server (Steve Jones)
Indexes are important for improving the performance of your queries, but they add overhead to your server and require maintenance. This session examines how indexes work and the basic maintenance that you should perform to ensure your system is running at its peak level.

Van Gaal coy over Di Maria
Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal was unwilling to confirm reports the club have agreed to sign Angel di Maria for a British record fee on the day the winger bid farewell to his Real Madrid team-mates.
Spanish newspaper Marca on Sunday evening reported an agreement had been reached between United and Real for the Red Devils to splash out 75 million euros (around £60million) plus add-ons for Di Maria, and that the Argentina international would fly to Manchester on Monday.
Earlier on Sunday, Real boss Carlo Ancelotti - a few days after revealing Di Maria had told the Spanish outfit he wanted to leave and rejected the offer of a new contract - said the 26-year-old had not taken part in training that morning but instead ''come to say goodbye''.
Angel di Maria, pictured, is reportedly poised to leave Real Madrid
Meanwhile, Van Gaal gave little away on the matter when asked about it after his side's 1-1 Barclays Premier League draw at Sunderland.
"I cannot say anything about transfers, you have to understand that," the Dutchman said.
"When a transfer has been finished then we can say something.
"But now you have to wait and see. When the moment is there Manchester United shall announce it."
When asked if he was interested in bringing Di Maria to Old Trafford, Van Gaal said that could be said for several players.
"It is not only Di Maria, maybe (Arturo) Vidal or (Lionel) Messi! We are a big club," the Dutchman added.
Ancelotti's comments suggested the deal is drawing close.
The Italian said of Di Maria: ''He has come and has not practised. It's not official yet, but he came to say goodbye.
''We gave thanks for what he has done for this club and wish him luck for the future. It is not official, but it is solved.
''I have personally had a good relationship with him and he did a fantastic job here.
''It was his decision to leave because the club did everything possible for him to stay by offering everything to him to stay.''
Manchester United have already signed Di Maria's international team-mate Marcos Rojo this summer, while the club have also brought in another defender in England's Luke Shaw and Spanish midfielder Ander Herrera.
The British transfer record currently stands at £50million, set by Fernando Torres' move from Liverpool to Chelsea in 2011.

I've been married for 1 year now. I am not sure as to whether I should find a job and sponsor my husband to live with me in the UK or I should just leave the UK to live with him in Pakistan. He (my husband) has not given me any specific orders that i could follow; I have a 2 bedroom flat here in London owned by the council, and I am living on money (Income Support) which the government gives. So in the Islamic view my husband does not fulfill any of my rights and I'm also not able to give him his rights; if I sponsor him it means I have to work in a mix sexes environment which I want to avoid, is it permissible for me to work in such an environment when I perfectly know that my husband is in good health and can provide me with enough to live on in Pakistan? 1) Should I move to Pakistan and let him fulfill all my rights and vice versa? 2) Should he pay for my ticket every time he wants me to visit him? 3) Is it right for me to ask him to give my share of money (i.e. that he should be spending on me according to Quran and Sunnah) as zakah or save it for when I visit him? 4) Is what I'm taking from the government haram for me beacause I have a husband in Pakistan who can provide me with money, clothes and a roof over my head? 5) What rights does my daughter have on my husband and vice versa? (my daughter's father is in the UK and happily provides for her each week).
Married life cannot become stable without working together and coming together in love, goodness, friendship and sincerity, and co-operating in matters that have to do with this world and the Hereafter.
It makes no sense for you to be in one country and your husband to be in another country.
He is not the one who is giving you your rights on a reasonable basis, and you are not the one who is taking care of her husband as enjoined by Allah.
So it is essential to hasten to bring the family together so that it may be filled with love and harmony.
If your husband coming to join you means that you will be the one who works in a mixed environment and your husband will be left without work, undoubtedly working in an environment where men and women mix is haram, and has negative consequences for one's religious commitment, morals and family.
So long as your husband is able to spend on your maintenance in Pakistan, then it is better for you to live together in Pakistan.
With regard to the costs of your travelling to join him, he is the one who should pay for that. In fact, if possible he should travel to join you then take you back with him so that you will not be travelling without a mahram.
Of course it is not appropriate for the price of the ticket to form a barrier preventing you from joining your husband.
With regard to what you are taking from the government of financial assistance, reference should be made concerning that to the conditions of entitlement to that assistance.
With regard to your daughter, she has no rights over your husband with regard to spending on her maintenance; rather her maintenance is due in full from her father, according to what he can afford. Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Let the one who is rich spend according to his means, and the one on whom his provision is set according to bare needs — so he will spend (according to his means) out of what Allah has given to him. Allah does not burden a Nafs except (for) that which He has given (capacity) to her. Soon Allah will establish, after hardship, easiness."
[at-Talaq 65:7].
And Allah knows best.

Lindsay Lohan's hit movie Mean Girls is expected to go into production as a stage musical later this year (13), if actress Tina Fey gets her way.
The 30 Rock creator and star wrote the screenplay for the popular 2004 teen comedy, which was partly based on Rosalind Wiseman's non-fiction work Queen Bees and Wannabes, and now she is eager to see the film make its transition to the stage.
Fey has been working on a musical adaptation with her composer husband Jeff Richmond for several months and she wants to get the ball rolling on its production sooner rather than later - as soon as she can convince Paramount film bosses to sign on the dotted line.
Addressing the status of the musical project, Fey tells E! News, "We want to, I'd love to. I'm trying to develop it with my husband, who does all the music for 30 Rock, and I think Paramount's on board."

From the boardrooms of big business to the streets of the inner city, from the south side of Chicago to apartheid South Africa, Dr. Don Beck has taught people at all levels how to stop clashing and start communicating. His method is called Spiral Dynamics Integral, a revolutionary new way of perceiving human nature that lets us understand, predict, and resolve even the most difficult conflicts.
In his effort to map the genome of the mind, Dr. Beck has created a tool he calls the Spiral, which charts the underlying reasons for virtually everything that human beings think, believe, and do. Breaking down the "complexity codes" that lie at the heart of a problem, he explains, is the first step toward coming up with a real, lasting solution.

- Review for Spiral Dynamics Integral Review by Charles S
Seven + hours of introduction to Don Beck's substantial work with and elaboration of Clare Graves' original research. A tour de force.

- Review for Spiral Dynamics Integral Review by Bill T
I've had plenty of exposure to many Spiral Dynamics products. This is one of the best because Don Beck brings out the importance of understanding when people are entering or exiting a stage. These in-between areas can really be considered different stages in themselves. Also another point he drives home is how GREEN screws things up by their egalitarian approach of over-simplifying reality. There is plenty of very practical knowledge to be gained through listening to this highly intelligent audio product. I would recommend this before you go on to read the "Spiral Dynamics" book.

- Review for Spiral Dynamics Integral Review by Betty R
Excellent! One of the most comprehensive studies I have read in explaining psychological growth and how it relates to individuals, organization, countries, etc. across decades and globally. Don Beck is a delightful narrator. I am sending these tapes as gifts to family and friends hoping that they will also benefit from this profound program.

- Review for Spiral Dynamics Integral Review by Bobby-z Lambert
If you have been perplexed buy the state of the world around you.
If you have ever asked why are their such differences in cultures, business, countries . rich and poor, politics, schools, or even why you seem to be changing and those close to you are changing coming together or drifting apart?
If you want to finally see an academic apply their theory to real people and big complex problems in the REAL WORLD!
If you want a sense of useful hope that puts tools of powerful change in your hands.
Then listen to these CD's as soon as you can.

- Review for Spiral Dynamics Integral Review by Jim Luzadder
Spiral Dynamics is an interesting book. What will interest most people will be found in the first twenty or thirty pages. These are NOT to be missed. The balance of the book is technical, and focuses upon how Spiral Dynamics can be a very powerful tool of change. Thorough and well written, this book is essential for anyone, anywhere who is interested in, or involved with, change.

- Review for Spiral Dynamics Integral Review by Betty Rogers
Spiral Dynamics does seem to be the theory that explains everything. I have read the book and listened to the tapes. I expected the tapes to be a rereading of the text, but I found them more interesting and easier to follow that the book. Don Beck has such an engaging and sincere personality, and his presentation is full of wit and intellect. Sprial Dynamics has made me more conscious of the way I view myself, others. and events.

Severe turbulence injures 6 on Philly-Orlando flight
Six passengers were hurt when an Orlando-bound US Airways flight encountered severe turbulence shortly after taking off from Philadelphia Sunday afternoon. The flight returned to Philadelphia after the incident.
Flight 735 Passengers on the flight tell The Philadelphia Inquirer the turbulence lasted for 5 to 10 seconds, rocking the Airbus A330 side to side about 20 minutes after takeoff. There were 265 passengers and 10 crew on the flight, according to NBC Philadelphia.
Mark Pensiero, a passenger on the flight, tells the Inquirer it if felt like he his seat suddenly dropped and that his seat belt was the only thing holding him in place.
USA TODAY: What's it like to experience clear air turbulence?
ARCHIVES: Sunwing flight from Canada to Mexico diverts to Montana after 'extreme' turbulence (March 2014)
ARCHIVES: 'Severe turbulence' hurts 8 on United flight to Ireland (October 2013)
"It was a crazy experience," passenger Victoria Rains adds to CBS 6 of Philadelphia. "We were just up in the air, like, lifted out of our seats, seeing things flying all over the place. I got sick from it. ... It was really scary. It was a terrifying experience."
After the flight returned to Philadelphia, passenger Pensiero tells the Inquirer he saw one passenger being taken away on a stretcher and another — a flight attendant — wearing a neck brace.
Overall, four passengers and two flight attendants reported injuries, according to The Associated Press. Five of those were hospitalized, though none of the injuries were thought to be life-threatening. The two attendants had been discharged by Sunday evening, according to Reuters.
USA TODAY: Danger of turbulence remains safety threat to air travel (September 2012)
ASK THE CAPTAIN: Is turbulence getting worse?
US Airways spokesman Bill McGlashen says the turbulence occurred at around 17,000 feet and that the captain still had the seat-belt sign on.
Airport spokeswoman Stacy Jackson tells AP that the Flight 735 passengers who wished to continue to on to Florida were put on another flight that took off about around 9 p.m. ET. That flight landed in Orlando about five hours behind schedule at 11:07 p.m. ET, according to US Airways' website.
The incident is a reminder unexpected and sudden turbulence can be a threat to fliers, especially those who are not buckled in.
USA TODAY reminds in this story from September 2012 that "air-safety analysts warn that wind turbulence — which can bounce a plane dozens of feet while landing or taking off and hundreds of feet while cruising — lingers as a rare but real way of getting hurt when flying. About a dozen people suffer serious injuries in the air each year because of turbulence."
The US Airways incident follows several similar incidents in recent months. Among those that have been picked up by the media:
March 16, 2014: Passengers on a Sunwing Airlines flight from Edmonton, Canada, to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, got an unexpected day in a Montana airport terminal after their flight diverted there because of extreme turbulence. A flight attendant was injured after receiving a cut on his head.
Feb. 18, 2014: At least nine passengers and crewmembers were injured when a Hong Kong-bound Cathay Pacific flight from San Francisco hit severe turbulence over Japan, the airline said.
Feb 17, 2014: United Airlines Flight 1676 from Denver to Billings hit turbulence so severe that people were tossed from their seats. Three flight attendants and two passengers were injured.
Oct. 20, 2013: Several passengers on a trans-Atlantic United Airlines flights were injured after the Dublin-bound Boeing 757 encountered "severe turbulence."

Susan Johnson's June 13 letter, "Judicial system has to follow through," is factually incorrect.
She states that the solicitor said the person arrested for dealing drugs was never prosecuted. The solicitor is a part of the executive branch of government – not judicial. Whether or not to prosecute a case is in the sole discretion of the elected solicitor – not the judge.

I just received my statements from Bank One First USA Chase and they raised my rate to 29.45% last month. I have perfect credit and have never been late on any payments. I took advantage of their offer on a low promotional rate of 5.9% for 6 months last year to pay off some bills.
At the end of the promotional period they increased my rate to 12% which I felt was fair based on competing credit card issuers. I have been making all payments on time with no derogatory or late payments with Bank One or any reflecting on my credit report. I pay Bank One approximately $1,500 per month on these three accounts. They originally issued me three cards based on my perfect credit history with $30,000, $20,000, and $10,000 limits which I used based on their offer to pay off bills utilizing their competitive interest rates with the understanding if I made payments on time I would be charged a reasonable interest rate.
I contacted Bank One on the telephone and wrote them a letter about this issue and requested the terms and conditions which allows them to raise the rate to a ridiculously high A.P.R. which I understand to be a default rate. 29.45% is extremely high for someone that pays all of their bills on time. It has been over 30 days and I haven't received anything in the mail. Again I contacted Bank One by telephone and asked why such an extreme increase without notice. They said based on a review of my credit report I was carrying exceptionally high balances and instructed me to contact Equifax and Esperian.
I contacted the credit reporting agencies which sent me a copy of my report and I became aware the high balances they mentioned were the balances I carry with Bank One. They issued the credit and are now using the credit they approved which is reflected on my credit credit report as a reason to now charge me 29.45%. This seems illegal and I feel they are taking advantage of consumers. I don't mind paying a fair rate for unsecured credit but 29.45% seems unfair especially since I have never been late on any payments.
In fact, this is ridiculous. If I had known they could charge this high of an interest rate I would have never utilized their lending services in the first place. It seems since Chase purchased Bank One and the merger is finalized, they are instigating unfair practices. They should at least give notice they were going to raise the interest rate and to more than double the interest rate in a single rate hike should be against the law.
I asked them to lower the rate from 29.45% to something fair until I can work out other arrangements to pay them off in full which will take me approximately 90 days. Again they refuse to do anything and now they have telemarketers calling my home throughout the day wanting me to sign up for accident and disability insurance. Also, at the same time, I am receiving new offers from them as well for additional credit cards with low interest rate balance transfer offers. I am furious!
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE -- For many years, we had a Bank One credit card and a Wachovia credit card with a combined credit limit of over $20,000 and with a combined balance (at that time) of about $8,000. This was a relatively high balance for us, as we had just purchased a home and had used the cards for home improvements. In May of 2003, Bank One took over the Wachovia credit card and issued us another Bank One card. We had never missed a payment nor had we been late on any payment to them or to any other creditor. Our credit report is pristine.
Upon the arrival of the statements in June, we were shocked to find that Bank One had arbitrarily, and without notice, raised the interest rate on one card from 6.25% to 22.99% and on the other from 9.9% to 24.99%. After spending hours on the phone with incompetent and rude operators and supervisors, the only excuse they could give us was that we had too much AVAILABLE credit, much of that with them; and they would not negotiate. They would do nothing! Luckily, we were able to transfer most of their balances to other credit cards and pay off the remainder, but not before Bank One charged us hundreds of dollars in interest charges.
Having read other complaints, others have not been as fortunate with their association with this corrupt institution. I am sure that many who have been subjected to this unethical machination have been left financially destitute and trapped into paying what constitutes usury.
However, I may add that what Bank One did to us and is doing to others, albeit devious and unscrupulous, is not illegal. UNDER NO CONDITIONS SHOULD ANYONE DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THIS BANK OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES; AND IF YOU ARE, YOU HAD BETTER PROMPTLY CONSIDER OTHER OPTIONS.
48025, MICHIGAN -- I have Had 2 accounts with BankOne, a Visa and A MasterCard, both for about 9 years. I have never been late for a payment and I have always made larger payments than needed. BankOne kept increasing my limits upward to over $30,000 on each card because of my good credit. I paid off my visa and told them I wanted to close the account. They did not want me to close it so I told them to decrease my balance to $1,000 and I would keep it opened. I continued to carry a balance and use my MasterCard.. then the problems started when bankone merged with Chase.
They sent me a letter and closed my visa card which was OK with me I wasn't using it... but then in December without my knowledge, they increased my interest rate to 29.49% from 8.9%.. I didn't even realize this until yesterday when I was looking over my statement. I immediately called them to see if this was a mistake.. I was told that sometime in the last 48 months my credit report showed that I made a late payment and so they raised my rate to 29.49%.
I asked her to review my account for the last 9 years.. did I ever have a late payment posted on my account, she stated "NEVER".. so you increased my rate because I may have been late with a payment to someone else.. she said that was correct.. well I have never made a late payment to anyone and am investigating that but I immediately closed the Bank One card and am paying the balance off.
Please DO NOT open or Continue to support a company that treats the consumer in this way. We have power by numbers. They will never get another cent from me if I can help it. I hope I can bring some of you over and NOT Support BankOne Or Chase Manhattan until they can treat a customer right.
ILLINOIS -- If you come in contact with this bank at any time for any reason, RUN THE OTHER WAY. Their "free checking" is anything but that. They charge you fees for every little thing, from balance inquiries to making more than a certain amount of withdrawals. Also, they have shady business practices that REALLY call into question their ethics. They recently held a cashiers check I deposited into my account AT a TELLER for SEVEN DAYS with no explanation other than it was "their policy" to do so. Oh yeah? Well I deposited a PERSONAL check through an ATM the week before, and that cleared in two business days! No other bank I know of has a "policy" like this.
And on top of that, they had the nerve to try to charge ME $150 in overdraft fees when the absence of the deposit in my account that THEY were holding caused me to temporarily (one day) go negative by a couple of dollars. Yes, you read that right. _$150_ Where's that "free checking" now, eh?
This is just a sample of the ongoing problems I have had with Bank One over the years. I have tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, having been with them for a while, but they have gotten increasingly worse at an astounding rate. I fully expect them to face litigation some time soon. Moral of the story: find another bank to trust your money to. Bank One will just take it.
Bank One lived down to their expectations. After having a Citibank credit card for years, Bank One bought the rights to the Sony card, and cardholders could NOT back out to stay with Citibank. Is this legal? We were forced to switch to Bank One, which sent me a notice that they were going to double my interest rate, almost, from 11.5% to 19.99!!! Fortunately, I caught the disclosure and wrote to them that I reject the terms, so I can pay off and close my account.
How is what they are doing legal!?!? I did a search for class action lawsuits, and came up blank. Anyone have any ideas?
ILLINOIS -- I lived in Champaign, Illinois for 15 years. People in that city consistently complained about service. I think that just adds to the other complaints I've read. Did they ever have any scruples? Chase just raised my minimum payment from $500/month to $800 month. I just started getting electronic statements and was shocked to see that my interest rate had been raised to 23.9 from 5.99%. This in the face of the fact that I had contacted them by phone some time ago and had been assured that my interest rate had NOT been raised.
Honestly, I don't think little people like me have any chance from the robber barons at Chase and Bank One. For your information, their sister bank (father bank?) Chase Manhattan has no working email address. It is supposedly firstname.lastname@example.com but apparently they really don't want anyone to contact them. My email to that address had an error in the address bar. Enough said, I think.
NYC, NEW YORK -- Bank One which has sold their credit card services to Chase has been raising their rates consistently with NO reason except to garner $ from individuals who have paid and paid over the years. Chase now continues this legalized theft from consumers. Where in hell is our congressmen. The banks have been getting away with murder and using the money we cough up to our federal government. America wake up oil companies, banks, health care -it is out of control and our elected officials do NOTHING.
Banks are as guilty of theft just as someone picking your pocket. Its time to act and ensure a governing body that would protect the consumer. We indeed need change from the top down. The very backbone of this country is being attacked by spineless, gutless politicians and corporate executives.
I received a call from Bank One offering to sell some type of insurance. I declined but the caller persisted but I kept saying no. When I got my bill, I was being charged for it. I called and they said they would credit the account. The next month I got another bill, with another charge, and a late fee for not paying the previous month. This went on for 4 months. Each month late fees stacking up, and each month calling to cancel this unwanted insurance. Finally it stopped after much confusion by their employees, and I closed my account, never to do business with Bank One again!
MICHIGAN -- I have a small savings account at Bank One that I primarily used for overdraft protection. Bank One seems to have this policy in which they classify accounts that have not had deposits/withdrawals within a certain period of time as DORMANT, in which after they are classified as DORMANT - they basically seize your money. I have called Bank One and sent them emails to remove the dormant status of this account - but have been unsuccessful as they state that I am required to visit them in person or write them a letter (I thought that was what I was doing when I sent them an email from my via my online account...).
What is really ridiculous about this is that I have several other accounts at Bank One and this one in particular is linked to my checking account - which is very active. I feel that Bank One's policy on this issue is basically an attempt on their part to steal our money. Has anyone else had this very unpleasant experience with Bank One. I am so angry about this that I am now researching other banks and will never use them (or Chase) again.

Two years ago, I went through and swatched every eyeliner I owned by color, so that they could easily be compared. It's time for a re-do, because we have so many more shades to add to our comparisons! Our first part of this on-going series is a comparison of the various nude and champagne eyeliners I have on hand. This shade is typically used on the lower lash line or water line to help brighten and open up eyes.
- BAREMINERALS 5AM is a pewter–it's a dirty, cool-toned gold with a silvered sheen. I didn't expect it to be similar to anything here, but it didn't fit well with golds either.
- MAC GILDED WHITE is a warm white gold with a metallic sheen. (LE)
- MAC NC15/NW20 is a light beige/fleshy shade. It is a hair darker than NARS Rue Bonaparte.
- MAC NW25/NC30 is a darker version of NW15/NC20. Almost looks like a darkened peach. It is very similar to Givenchy #2.
- MAC NC42/NW35 is darker version of NW25/NC30. It looks a bit peachy/orange on me.
- GIVENCHY #2 is a warm, peachy beige with yellow-beige undertones and a mostly matte finish. It is comparable to MAC NW25/NC30.
- NARS RUE BONAPARTE is a soft beige with a matte finish. It is just barely lighter than MAC NC15/NW20.
- MAC I GET NO KICK is a soft champagne nude with a metallic sheen. (LE) It is ever-so-slightly warmer than MUFE #23L but very comparable to UD Midnight Cowboy.
- MAKE UP FOR EVER #23L is a shimmering golden champagne with a nearly metallic finish. This shade is slightly less warm compared to MAC I Get No Kick and UD Midnight Cowboy.
- URBAN DECAY MIDNIGHT COWBOY is a shimmering champagne peach with a subtle metallic sheen. (LE) This is most comparable to MAC I Get No Kick. An alternative to this shade would be Urban Decay's Shadow Pencil of the same name.
TEMPTALIA PICKS: #1 (high quality), #3-6 (good formula), #9 (versatile, readily available)
Behind-the-Series: These swatches should not be used to judge the quality of an eyeliner. Some eyeliners required one pass, some required five, and a few even more. It was my intention to provide heavy, opaque swatches to provide an accurate color comparison. When possible, the shade name (above) is linked to the original review. If we've never done a review, there will be no link. Shades that were limited edition will be marked with "(LE)" and shades that were discontinued will be marked with "(DC)" after the color description. You can also find all comparisons on The Dupe List.

Hi, my name is Aldana, from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I'm a 22 year old tattoo artist and graphic design student.
I got introduced to this wonderful breed by my MMA coach. When I first saw the huge rednose running at full speed I thought he would eat me alive. He did eat me, with kisses! He's the sweetest dog i've ever met.
Then my boyfriend had a brindle girl who was my best friend.
When we broke up I missed her like crazy, and just now I decided I needed one of my own. After looking through different breeders I settled on a family that had two beautiful pitbulls, they didn't mean to breed them but their daughter made the mistake to let them together when the female was in heat. They are a great family and their dogs are well socialized and cared for.
So in ten days from today I'll be getting Bruce.
I'm already inlove and it was really hard to leave without him!
I packed the house with toys and got a new kennel. I'm super excited and can't wait to love him.
I also have an eleven year old english coker spaniel, who thinks he's still a puppy inspite being blind and half deaf.
I hope to meet people who love this breed and to get advice on how to raise my puppy to be the best dog he can be.

Oliver Springs may be the place to go for used car salesmen.
At least, that is the concern of officials worried that Oliver Springs is not benefiting in the increase of the lots opening in the town.
Oliver Springs Town Manager David Bolling said another business is getting ready to open soon.
Ways to make sure the facilities are meeting regulations and actually benefiting the town were discussed briefly during the Oliver Springs Board of Aldermen meeting last Thursday.

Having been beaten to the punch for the announcement of its own product, LG has started a teaser campaign for its Qualcomm-powered quad-core smartphone.
Qualcomm had previously made the reveal by releasing an official document before the Korean manufacturer had even had a chance to unveil the so far unnamed phone.
However, the latest video – it's in Korean – looks to be the first of five, as LG hints at what the phone will provide in terms of experience.
Games and video are sure to figure heavily in the LG handset on account of the latest Snapdragon S4 Pro quad core APQ8064 chip that Qualcomm will provide.
The Verge is also reporting to have heard rumours of a 720p 4.7-inch IPS display, 13-megapixel camera with 2GB of RAM.
In Qualcomm's earlier statement, the company also stated that the LTE-enabled phone would be made available in Korea as soon as September, before being rolled out to the rest of the world.
With only a few days left in August, expect LG's teaser campaign to build momentum in the coming weeks. Now where's that Korean dictionary?

Players Enticed by MGM Grand's Lion's Share Machine's Jackpot of $2.3 Million
LAS VEGAS—Forget Britney Spears and Cirque du Soleil. For many gamblers, the hottest attraction in Sin City is an outdated three-reel slot machine that hasn't produced a jackpot in nearly two decades.
It is called the Lion's Share, and in this city with no shortage of losing bets, the 20-year-old slot has attracted a legion of ever-hopeful devotees on the floor of the MGM Grand, the Strip's second-biggest casino.

A God without perfection: A God we can believe in?
Yoram Hazony, president of the Institute for Advanced Studies at the Shalem Center in Jerusalem, has written an astonishingly simple apology for the God of the Hebrew Bible in The New York Times, offering it as a way beyond the God-the-perfect-being proposed by philosophers and much classical Christian theology. As Hazony points out, that approach to God as serious problems, the first of which is "that it appears to be impossible to make it coherent. For example, it seems unlikely that God can be both perfectly powerful and perfectly good if the world is filled (as it obviously is) with instances of terrible injustice."
Hazony goes on to argue that the perfect, all-powerful, impassible God often proposed can't be found in the Hebrew Bible: "The God of Hebrew Scripture is not depicted as immutable, but repeatedly changes his mind about things (for example, he regrets having made man). He is not all-knowing, since he's repeatedly surprised by things (like the Israelites abandoning him for a statue of a cow). He is not perfectly powerful either, in that he famously cannot control Israel and get its people to do what he wants."
Both these problems have been obvious for some time, most poignantly since the mass murder of God's chosen people during the Nazi regime. What isn't always apparent is a way of speaking about God that is both honest to reality and still generates a God worth believing in. Hazony looks for clues in the divine name revealed to Moses: "The Hebrew 'I will be what I will be' is in the imperfect tense, suggesting to us a God who is incomplete and changing. In their run-ins with God, human beings can glimpse a corner or an edge of something too immense to be encompassed, a 'coming-into-being' as God approaches, and no more."
Intriguing, but is that a God we can believe in?

Tonight at the Hold Steady, Art Brut, 1990s show, the Hold Steady at Terminal 5 in New York, played 3 new songs: Stay Positive, Ask Her For Adderall, and another one I didn't catch the name of (it had Strange in it). The first two were pretty fast and the third was pretty slow. All three: pretty awesome.
For the Hold Steady's last song, Art Brut's Eddie Argos and Ian Catskilkin joined them on stage. I'll try to post some video when I find it, but let me just tell you, the British accent brings a whole new element to the Hold Steady. Whether that's a good thing, I'm not too sure. But Jackie McKeown of 1990s (who put on another great, great, great performance) was dancing along with the entire set (including the 30 seconds of Art Brut's Hold Steady cameo) also, so you know the set itself had to be good.

Hadoop was created by the Apache foundation as an open-source software framework capable of processing large amounts of heterogeneous data-sets in a distributed fashion (via MapReduce) across clusters of commodity hardware on a storage framework (HDFS). Hadoop uses a simplified programming model. The result is Hadoop provides a reliable shared storage and analysis system.
MapReduce is a software framework that allows developers to write programs that perform complex computations massive amounts of unstructured data in parallel across a distributed cluster of processors or stand-alone computers. MapReduce libraries have been written in many programming languages (usually Java), with different levels of optimization. It works by breaking down a large complex computation into multiple tasks and assigning those tasks to individual worker/slave nodes and taking care of coordination and consolidation of the results. A MapReduce program is composed of a Map() procedure that performs filtering and sorting (such as sorting students by first name into queues, one queue for each name) and a Reduce() procedure that performs a summary operation (such as counting the number of students in each queue, yielding name frequencies).
Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is a distributed file-system that stores data on commodity machines, providing very high aggregate bandwidth across the cluster. When data is pushed to HDFS, it will automatically split into multiple blocks and stores/replicates the data across various datanodes, ensuring high availability and fault tolerance.
NameNode holds the information about all the other nodes in the Hadoop cluster, files present in the cluster, constituent blocks of files and their locations in the cluster, and other information useful for the operation of the Hadoop cluster. Each DataNode is responsible for holding the data. JobTracker keeps track of the individual tasks/jobs assigned to each of the nodes and coordinates the exchange of information and results. TaskTracker is responsible for running the task/computation assigned to it.
A small Hadoop cluster includes a single master and multiple worker nodes. The master node consists of a JobTracker, TaskTracker, NameNode and DataNode. A slave or worker node acts as both a DataNode and TaskTracker.
There are many other tools that work with Hadoop:
Hive is part of the Hadoop ecosystem and provides an sql-like interface to Hadoop. Hive uses MapReduce code to extract data from the Hadoop cluster. Hive is an open-source data warehouse system for querying and analyzing large datasets stored in Hadoop files. Hive supports queries expressed in a language called HiveQL, which automatically translates SQL-like queries into MapReduce jobs executed on Hadoop. Hive appeals to data analysts familiar with SQL.
Pig enables you to write programs using a procedural language called Pig Latin that are compiled to MapReduce programs on the cluster. It also provides fluent controls to manage data flow. Pig is more of a scripting language while Hive is more SQL-like. With Pig you can write complex data transformations on a data set such as aggregate, join and sort. It can be extended using User Defined Functions in Java and called directly by Pig.
While Hadoop is a natural choice for processing unstructured and semi-structured data like logs and files, there may be a need to process structured data stored in relational databases as well. Sqoop (SQL-to-Hadoop) is a tool that allows you to import structured data from SQL Server and SQL Azure to HDFS and then use it in MapReduce and Hive jobs. You can also use Sqoop to move data from HDFS to SQL Server.
How Hadoop fits in with the Parallel Data Warehouse (PDW) and Polybase:

(AP) Spain train driver suspected of negligent homicide
By YESICA FISCH
Associated Press
SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain
Spain's interior minister announced Saturday that the driver whose speeding train crashed, killing 78 people, is now being held on suspicion of negligent homicide.
Minister of Interior Jorge Fernandez Diaz announced the step against Francisco Jose Garzon Amo, who previously had been detained on suspicion of recklessness following Wednesday's crash in Santiago de Compostela.
Fernandez Diaz also said Garzon, 52, has been discharged from the hospital, taken to the police station and would appear before a judge by Sunday evening.
Garzon has the right to keep silent, "although he may change his mind on that," the minister said.
Blame has increasingly fallen on the driver, with the country's railway agency saying it was his responsibility to brake before going into the high-risk curve where the train tumbled off the rails and smashed into a wall. But it's still not clear whether the brakes failed or were never used, and the driver has remained silent so far.
A blood-soaked Garzon was photographed Wednesday being escorted away from the wreckage, at first by civilians who had hurried to the scene of the accident and then by police, but it is not clear just what his medical status is.
Unconfirmed media reports said that Garzon had injured ribs.
He had been expected to give a preliminary statement to judicial police as early as Thursday, but that process was delayed, reportedly due to health reasons. Earlier Saturday, the justice department said Garzon's first appearance before a judge had been postponed until Sunday.
In Wednesday's crash, the train's eight carriages packed with 218 passengers blazed far over the speed limit into a curve and violently tipped over. Diesel fuel sent flames coursing through some cabins.
Investigators are examining recording devices from the train but have not officially said how fast it was going when it derailed.
An American passenger, Stephen Ward, said he was watching the train's speed on a display screen in the carriage _ and it indicated it was going 194 kph (121 mph), more than double the 80-kph speed limit.
The president of Adif, the Spanish rail agency, said that the driver should have started slowing the train 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) before the dangerous bend. He said signs clearly marked this point when the driver must begin to slow.
Normally, police take a first statement that is then examined by an investigating judge who must then take testimony within 72 hours of the arrest. That deadline is Sunday.
Although that initial court hearing would be closed, it would give hints about the status of the investigation. The judge would decide whether to jail the driver as an official suspect, release him on bail, or release him without charges. If a judge finds sufficient evidence for a criminal trial, the suspect will be charged and a trial date set.
AP writer Harold Heckle in Madrid contributed to this report.

Wilson, N.C. – A six run sixth inning by #8 seed St. Andrews, led to a 7-5 win for the Knights over #9 seed Coker in the opening game of the 2009 Conference Carolinas baseball tournament.
Coker jumped out to an early 4-1 lead in the first inning thanks to RBI singles from BK Harfst (Arvada, CO), Jessie Crockett (North East, MD) and Karl Ankersen (Mt. Pleasant, SC) and a St. Andrews error. A RBI double by the Knights Kyle Norris in the bottom half of the inning gave St. Andrews their run, and that is where the game would stay for the next four and a half innings. But in the bottom of the sixth the Knights exploded for six runs on five hits and a Coker error to take a 7-4 lead.
Coker did manage to get one more run on the board, as Crockett drove home Brinley Griffin (Port St. John, FL) with an RBI single in the eighth.
St. Andrews' Travis Lee (4-6) earned the complete game win, allowing five runs on eight hits with three strikeouts, with Coker hurler Chris Thomas (Bluffton, SC) (4-7) taking the loss, allowing four runs on three hits in an inning of work.
At the plate, Crockett was 2-for-4 with two RBIs to lead the Cobras, while Ankersen and Harfst each had an RBI.
St. Andrews was led by Norris, going 2-for-2 with a double, an RBI and a run scored, while Charles Weber, Ethan Powell and Josh Axelsen each had a a hit and an RBI.
St. Andrews advances to play #1 seed Belmont Abbey at Fleming Stadium at 4:00 p.m., while Coker will face the elimination at 2:30 p.m. against the loser of Mount Olive/Anderson.

September 7, 2005
Tom Inouye and his friends used to drain people's pools while they were on vacation so they could skate in them — that is, until they got caught.
After that, they would put a sign in the lawn that said "Inouye's Pool Service" before they drained the pool, to fool the police and passers-by into thinking that they were a pool-cleaning business. They never got caught again.
Ever since then, in the late 70s, Inouye's Pool Service has been a well-known name in the skate community — Inouye was even named the second-best skater in the world around that same time.
Now Tom Inouye has brought Inouye's Pool Service to Hood River.
Inouye and his wife, Kathryn, purchased Epoch Skate Shop from Blake and Suzie Richards early this year, and took over operations on June 1. They also renamed the store IPS — Inouye's Pool Service.
"We've upped the inventory and have more inventory geared toward skateboarding," Inouye said.
Inouye used to work at Windell's Camp in Welches, Ore., a camp that focuses on skiing, snowboarding and skating. But "things didn't work out," he said, and he tried to find his niche.
"I knew Blake and Suzie had this shop, and my wife and I talked about it and approached them about being partners," Inouye said. "They said they actually wanted to get rid of it, so we made a deal and bought it."
Inouye started skating because there wasn't much else for him to do, he said.
"I really wanted to play team sports. But they told me I was too small for football and too short for basketball. So I started to surf and skate," he said.
What Inouye didn't know at the time was that his new hobbies would one day make him world famous. In fact, it was pure serendipity that it happened.
"I was in the right place at the right time," he said. "I got some photos taken of me, and then I got sponsors and I went around the world."
He also says that it was one of the best things that ever happened to him. "It got me out of east L.A., and probably literally saved my life," he said.
Inouye now produces skateboards under the IPS label, and is giving his gift to the rest of the world. "I try to build a skate park in every town I live in," he said. "It's time to give it back to the kids."
IPS is located at 1225 Wasco St. and is open from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day.

The question is pretty self explanatory.
I'm working with code from multiple developers. Some of whom are inconsistent in their use of semicolons, and I just want them after every line for consistency (and to prevent any masking of errors).
I use Aptana to format my source code, but it won't add semicolons for you AFAIK.

The mythology-rooted "Percy Jackson & the Olympians" franchise is fairly engaging stuff, unabashed "Harry Potter" knockoff or no. Author Rick Riordan's popular kid-lit series made its screen debut three years ago with an adaptation of "The Lightning Thief" — directed by "Potter" alum Chris Columbus, naturally — and proved to be a fun, brisk, even intermittently educational fantasy spectacle. As the lead, Logan Lerman ("The Perks of Being a Wallflower") skated through the action with easy charisma. If the movie had had a convincing emotional core, the imitation discussion might have been footnote material.
The new sequel, "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters," delivers more of the same, on all counts. Dispensing with any rote civilian-world angst, the movie dives right into the latest challenge facing hoodied demigod Percy: An assault on Hogwarts — er, Camp Half-Blood — has fatally damaged a mystical tree that projects a protective barrier around the compound. Percy and his demigoddess gal pal, Annabeth (Alexandra Daddario), realize that the healing power of the legendary Golden Fleece is the answer.
But oh, all the gods-darned obstacles complicating their Fleece quest. Percy already questions whether his successful first-installment odyssey was just a fluke, never mind that he's Poseidon's son. Mentor-centaur Chiron (cleverly cast Anthony Stewart Head of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," taking over for Pierce Brosnan) lays a cryptic prophecy on him about the mission. Meanwhile, another camp counselor, "Mr. D" (Stanley Tucci, amusingly conveying Dionysian in leopard prints), hands the quest to Clarisse (Leven Rambin of "The Hunger Games," playing irksomely confrontational, even for Ares's daughter). And as it turns out, maybe scheming "Lightning Thief" nemesis Luke (Jake Abel) isn't quite as out of the picture as we'd assumed. (In a related, throwaway cameo, Nathan Fillion trades on his Comic-Con cred as Luke's dad, Hermes.)
Kinda, sorta undaunted, Percy, Annabeth, and satyr buddy Grover (Brandon T. Jackson) set out to retrieve their prize from the Sea of Monsters, better known to us mortals as the Bermuda Triangle. Percy's newly revealed Cyclops half-brother (Douglas Smith, "Big Love") tags along — more of that undercooked "human" drama finally resurfacing, as ineffectively as last time. The character does offer a lesson, though, in how to help manage a mid-level effects budget: Stick your Cyclops behind sunglasses, or spritz him with an appearance-normalizing potion.
Following a couple of underwhelming effects sequences in the early going, director Thor Freudenthal ("Diary of a Wimpy Kid") finds his groove with a succession of flashy 3-D renderings. Highlights include a gaping-mawed, vertigo-inducing Charybdis, and a molten, climactically resurrected Kronos, the gods' vengeance-thirsting father. They're digitized riffs on the Sarlacc pit from "Star Wars" and the finale of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" — but as with the "Potter" cribbing, when it's done well, it encourages "Percy" audiences to forgive the derivative chunks and thin emotion.Tom Russo can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Munsters
|Costume type:
|Costumes for Families
This homemade costume for families entered our 2012 Halloween Costume Contest.
A word from Patricia, the 'The Munsters' costume creator:
Patricia "Lily Munster"
Norm "Herman Munster"
Lance "Grandpa Munster"
Beth "Marilyn Munster"
Nicole "Eddie Munster"
How-to: The Munsters
Lily's costume was made by sewing a pink prom dress with spaghetti straps & a pink chiffon, bell-sleeved shirt together and sewing black ribbon over the straps and around the neckline to give the illusion of one outfit. She wore black heels and black wig. The necklace was made by taking a hanging bat decoration and attaching a chain to it for the necklace. Paint face, draw thick eyebrows, along with heavy black eyeliner and shadow, voila done!
Herman's costume was made by him wearing brown clothing that was too small(suit jacket, pants and long-sleeved shirt) to create the effect that he was a big man and he wore platform shoes and a mask. Because the suit jacket was so small, he actually split the seam in the back when he bent over which made the costume PERFECT!
Grandpa's costume was created by him wearing a tuxedo from his wedding and black dress shoes, making a vampire pendant for his necklace (red ribbon and plastic star painted gold with glued on jewel), creating a cape (black fabric with ties) and wearing a mask.
Marilyn's costume was created by her wearing an old floral dress paired with a cardigan, blonde wig and heels.
Eddie's costume was created by her, that's right Eddie was a girl dressed up as a boy. We cut brown pants into shorts, paired with a button-up brown shirt with felt collar sewed on to create a collared look. The tie was a Christmas bow colored brown and fastened onto the shirt. We greased back her hair and painted on the widow's peak and eyebrows. She wore her socks pulled up with buckle loafers to top off the look.
Total cost to make all five costumes, including paint and makeup was $50. We love making our Halloween costumes, so we hope you enjoyed our work!

CORNWALL, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 26, 2013) - Ontario Federation of Labour Spokesperson Duncan Mac Donald will join injured workers, survivors and their advocates at a Cornwall event to remember fallen workers. The Day of Mourning for Workers Killed or Injured on the Job is the labour movement's most solemn occasion.
Workplace safety advocates are calling for a commitment from every police chief and crown attorney in the province to properly train officers and prosecutors to investigate workplace accidents as crime scenes and to pursue employer violations of safety protocols to the full extent of the law.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the passing of Bill C-45, an historic law known as the Westray Bill, which amended the Criminal Code of Canada to hold employers criminally liable when their negligence causes the death or serious injury of a worker. While as many as 400 workers continue to die on the job every year in Ontario and more than 200,000 are injured, not one Ontario employer representative has ever faced a personal criminal conviction.
"When employers ignore safety laws, tragedies aren't accidents … they are crimes," said Mac Donald. "This workplace carnage will not cease until negligent CEOs are ushered out of their board rooms in handcuffs. Without justice, no fallen worker can rest in peace."
Since 1985, April 28 has been recognized across Canada as the International Day of Mourning for Workers Killed or Injured on the Job. On this day, worker advocates call for justice and fair compensation for injured workers, victims and survivors.

text: Social interactions are wrought with word learning cues. To connect a label to its referent, one must integrate cues from a speaker's expression, mouth shape, speech stream and attentional focus. Individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) show marked differences in their scanning of social scenes. These differences may cause them to miss valuable word learning cues. In support of this possibility, children with ASD tend to have significant language impairments. In a preliminary investigation of attention and word learning, the researchers used eye tracking to study how verbal and nonverbal autistic children look at word-learning scenes. Children watched videos of a woman labeling one of two objects in front of her ("Look it's a dax!"). The child's pattern of fixation during this familiarization was then used to predict their ability to recognize the correct target at test ("Look at the dax."). Thus far, the research team has identified a correlation between attention to the mouth during familiarization and the ability to identify the target at test. This important result holds promise for interventions targeting word learning in ASD. The research aims to translate these basic results into a procedure that will serve as the basis for such an intervention. The study is in two phases. First, they aim to extend the exploration of the mechanisms underlying attention and word learning in ASD with two experiments. Experiment 1 will address the impact of cue salience. Does attention to the mouth predict successful word learning when the speaker manipulates the object, points at the object and when she simply gazes at the object? Experiment 2 will explore the importance of bimodal information for word learning. The speaker will ask children to "Look at the dax" while the researchers show either a video of her saying this or an abstract image. This will address whether a direct visual match facilitates word learning. In the second phase, they will use data from Phase 1 to intervene on children's word learning. This will allow the determination of whether the team's basic results have the potential to facilitate word learning. With mentorship from a leading clinician and autism researcher, and an expert in experimental investigations of visual attention, this fellow would allow for translation of the fellow's skills in experimental research to applied work that will address one of the most crippling symptoms in ASD: failure to develop language.

The only thing that could overshadow Kelsey Grammer's Golden Globe win for "Boss" is the news that he's having twins.
Backstage at Sunday night's award show, Grammer told reporters that his wife, Kayte Walsh, is in her second trimester.
"Fatherhood is always different based upon the character that comes into your life," he said.
"They arrive and tell you what you have to do. I'm really looking forward to meeting these new arrivals in our lives, yes, twins."
Grammer went on to call his bride of 11 months "one of the most loving, amazing, warm human beings I've ever met" and said that she "will make an extraordinary mother."
The baby news came as a shock to Grammer's most recent ex-wife and "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star, Camille Grammer.
"Camille and the children had no idea" that he was expecting to add to his brood, a source told the Huffington Post. "They found out about it from the media. Once again, selfish Kelsey decided to do what's best for him with no concern for his current children."
Camille and Grammer are still locked in a custody battle over their two kids, ages 7 and 10. Grammer has two other daughters from previous relationships, too.

FIFA World Cup Play-Off: Cameroon 4 Tunisia 1
Cameroon secured their place at the FIFA World Cup finals with an emphatic 4-1 win over Tunisia on Sunday.
Volker Finke's men went into the game on the back of a 0-0 draw in the first leg in Rades last month, and knew that defeat would see them fail to qualify for only the second time since 1986.
However, the hosts were never really in danger as they produced a dominant performance to become the third African nation to reach the 2014 finals in Brazil.
Fenerbahce striker Pierre Webo opened the scoring after four minutes with a cool finish from close range.
Benjamin Moukandjo doubled Cameroon's advantage with a fine individual goal, but the home fans were given a scare when Ahmed Akaichi pulled one back for Tunisia shortly after half-time.
However, the tie was settled by Jean II Makoun, who scored a second-half brace to spark jubilant scenes at the Stade Omnisport Ahmadou Ahidjo in Yaounde.
Cameroon made three changes from the first leg, with Tottenham defender Benoit Assou-Ekotto and Nancy attacker Moukandjo among those to come in.
Fakhreddine Ben Youssef replaced Sami Allagui in attack for Ruud Krol's visitors, while defender Karim Haggui came in for Alaeddine Yahia.
It did not take the hosts long to open the scoring, Webo capitalising on some sloppy Tunisian defence with a clinical finish across Moez Ben Cherifa.
Cameroon continued to push forward in a bid to kill the tie off, and came close to doubling their lead 10 minutes later when Ben Cherifa was forced into a fine save to deny Assou-Ekotto from long range.
Finke's side were rewarded for their positivity on the half-hour mark as Moukandjo weaved past several Tunisia defenders before firing a low shot beyond Ben Cherifa to put Cameroon in command.
The visitors should have pulled one back shortly before the break, but Syam Ben Youssef headed over from point-blank range.
Tunisia did put themselves firmly back in the tie six minutes into the second half, substitute Akaichi firing home on the half-volley after breaking through the Cameroon backline.
Krol's men began to dictate proceedings following their goal, and had a claim for a penalty turned down on the hour mark after Assou-Ekotto's clumsy challenge on Fakhreddine Ben Youssef.
Just six minutes later Assou-Ekotto proved to be the creator for the goal that all but ensured Cameroon's place in the finals, Makoun heading in a pinpoint near-post corner to delight the home fans.
Moukandjo was denied his second by Ben Cherifa, but Makoun put the gloss on a superb display four minutes from time as he slotted into an empty net after Maxim Choupo-Moting had hit the post.
